Fuck The NFL Draft

Let's get one thing straight, football is probably the American pro sports league I care about least. If I had to rank regular season sporting events in order I watch them, it would be: 1. Baseball 2. College Basketball 3. College Football 4. Hockey 5. Basketball 6. Football When the post seasons start, things change, because there is nothing as exciting as playoff hockey. Why? Three words. Sudden. Death. Overtime. Back to football and its espn-driven hype machine. I really do not understand why football receives the love it does. Can someone try to explain it to me? I'm guessing it's partially the violence. Americans love violence. A country gone great because we kicked a whole lot of ass, forcibly seized the best parts of a continent and act as the worlds policeman. Yeah, there's a tad bit of violence associated with our culture and our most popular game. No wonder we love football. ----------------------- So... first pick, I hope its Clowney becaus
